I got home from Wichita couple days before I thought Didn't recognize the truck parked in my drive My boots hit the hardwood floor Busted through the bedroom door Guess I must've caught you by surprise By the time he got his buckle on I hit the safe and grabbed my gun You were beggin' me with tears in your eyes Screamin', "Baby, let him go! You don't want that on your soul" I said, "A man is gonna die tonight" I'm chasin' tail lights straight as the crow flies Huntin' justice down a country road I've got a shotgun, it's ridin' shotgun And we're both fixin' to unload Son, I know what you've done There's only one way to outrun me You better pray your tank don't beat mine to E' Just blew past the county line That needle's pushin' 95 I'm on you like a shadow move for move All you see is my headlights I see the whites in your eyes That fear, mirrored in your rearview Go ahead and ride the gas Don't think that you're livin', man Just 'cause you make it past Dead Man's Curve Man, as far as I can tell, we might both end up in hell But you're sure as hell goin' first I'm chasin' tail lights straight as the crow flies Huntin' justice down a country road I've got a shotgun, it's ridin' shotgun And we're both fixin' to unload Son, I know what you done There's only one way to outrun me You better pray your tank don't beat mine to E' I'm chasin' tail lights straight as the crow flies Huntin' justice down a country road I've got a shotgun, it's ridin' shotgun And we're both fixin' to unload Son, I know what you done There's only one way you can outrun me You better pray your tank don't beat mine to E'
